Overview

Lift off from the V&A Waterfront and head toward Robben Island, where you’ll enjoy an unforgettable aerial view of one of South Africa’s most historic landmarks. Seeing the island from above offers a powerful perspective on its significance and the role it played during the country’s struggle for freedom.

After circling the island, you’ll make your way back toward the city shoreline. The flight follows the coast past Cape Town Stadium, Sea Point, and the pristine beaches of Clifton. You’ll continue along the dramatic Atlantic Seaboard until you reach the towering Twelve Apostles, where the helicopter turns for a smooth return to the V&A Waterfront.

Throughout the journey, your pilot will point out important landmarks and share fascinating insights about the area. All pilots are locals who know Cape Town’s history, culture, and coastline intimately. They bring the experience to life with stories, knowledge, and a genuine passion for the city they call home.
